Paperback. Condición: New. The 55 men who traveled to Philadelphia on horse and by stagecoach in the spring of 1787 as delegates to a Convention on the Articles of Confederation had been warned by the states that sent them to do nothing more than make a few changes in the flimsy articles.But when they went back to their home states, after working and debating through four long months of a hot Philadelphia summer, they had done a great deal more: they had done a great deal more: they had set down on paper the foundation of the United States. They had drafted the Constitution.What happened during the secret Constitutional Convention? What did these 55 Founding Fathers actually say in the debates? Fred Rodell bases his book directly on the much neglected day-by-day notes which James Madison took during the Constitutional Convention and on the hastily scribbled papers of a few other delegates. In these frank recordings, the true story of the birth of the Constitution is found. 55 Men: the Story of the Constitution is a stirring drama o.

The orange cloth boards are in good condition (faded spine lightly bumped at top). 7 ½ x 5, 129 pages, 8 ounces. XX [Kirkus Review, 1940] A brief and very pertinent analysis of the third term issue and the angles involved, by a man who succeeds in maintaining an objective viewpoint and presenting the arguments for both sides. Should a president achieve a third term in the face of the doubt as to long-run government morality? of immediate political expediency? of his own future? the nation's future? And what of the threat of dictatorship, of political patronage? Then again, if he happens to be the best man in the job and for the job, the pros and cons of switching horses in mid-stream. He presents the historical background and precedents. The Founding Fathers were all in favor of a third term; sheer exhaustion only stood in their way. Two great Democrats alone among them said No - Jefferson and Jackson. Grant, Cleveland, Theodore Roosevelt and Coolidge all might have been Third Term office holders, if the country had wished it. He pokes holes in the dictatorship argument and in the patronage argument. And he poses the question of domestic and foreign affairs as the real issue, and not the Third Term bogey when it comes to F.D.R. Here is the textbook for controversy on the subject. XX [Wikipedia] Fred Rodell (March 1, 1907 - June 4, 1980) was an American law professor most famous for his critiques of the U.S. legal profession. A professor at Yale Law School for more than forty years, Rodell was described in 1980 as the bad boy of American legal academia by Charles Alan Wright. He was one of the leading proponents of the legal realism approach and railed against overly abstract and theoretical legal arguments. He was a harsh critic of the legal profession, which he described as a high-class racket. In his 1936 Virginia Law Review article Goodbye to Law Reviews, Rodell famously remarked, There are two things wrong with almost all legal writing. One is its style. The other is its content. That, I think, about covers the ground. Rodell himself never became a member of the bar, later explaining that, By the time I got through law school, I had decided that I never wanted to practice law. I never have. Rodell studied under Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas at Yale Law School, graduating in 1931. They carried on a lifelong correspondence, a substantial portion of which is archived at Rodell's undergraduate alma mater, Haverford College (class of 1926). Haverford also awarded him an honorary degree (LL.D.) in 1973, the year he retired from Yale.
